  what would be great is some sort of "-p" (patch selection) option
with cherry-pick, but i don't see that.

We have "checkout -p", but of course the problem there is that it's
picking out of the whole state of that commit. So you might see
other changes not introduced by that commit.

  this is probably what i'll use since i can use <pathspec> to grab
only the patch file from that commit, then add and commit it manually
from there.
